Last week, I made a painting while visiting Douglas Beach on Lake Michigan with my family and friends.
I had a blast working en plein air, under shade, while everyone else played in the sand and water.
Studying the changing light and reflecting surfaces of the water was mesmerizing, but I had to work quickly laying in compositional and color choices before my acrylics dried or the light changed too drastically.
The finished painting took approximately 2.5 hours on site, and a couple more hours in my studio.
